"Battle: Los Angeles, Hall Pass"

Battle: Los Angeles: A marine sergeant (Aaron Eckhart) leads a group of soldiers as gooey extraterrestrials invade Earth. Either comfortingly familiar or gratingly obvious, depending on how fond you are of the genre.

Hall Pass: Owen Wilson stars in this Farrelly brothers comedy about a man whose wife allows him a weeklong "hall pass" from their marriage. It features flat-footed plotting and antiquated ideas about gender relations.
